Defensively, Brandon Dean pitched four strong innings while striking out four and giving up five runs. With the game tied, CSD put Zac Kohler on the mound. Kohler shut down the Vikings, only allowing one hit and striking out six. CSD was able to score a run in the top of the seventh, taking a 6-5 lead. Kohler shut down the Vikings in the bottom half, leading the Eagles to victory.
